MCAT Verbal

<p>Does anyone know how many out of 40 questions you can miss for the Verbal section and still score a 12?</p>

<p>From my Kaplan VR,</p>

<p>15= 40
14= 39
13= 38
12=37
11= 36
10= 35
9= 33-34</p>

<p>But the conversion tables vary frome test to test because the MCAT is a standardized test, meaning you aren't graded on what percentile you were in. A 15 could very well be 32 correct.</p>

<p>yikes.</p>

<p>aren't kaplan's curves harsher than the actual curves?</p>

<p>Even on the real test, VR tends to have the harshest curve out of the three sections.</p>

<p>For VR, I would assume that at the upper score levels, one missed question equals one point less on the section. I think that's a very safe paradigm to go on.</p>

<p>I just did a vr section in practice test by AAMC. I got 29 / 40 (missed 11) and I got a 10.</p>
